Date, Time and Language Settings Setting the Date and Time
You will need to set the date and time of the camcorder before you can
start using it. When the camcorder’s clock is not set, the [Date/Time]
screen will appear automatically with the month selected.
1 Push the joystick up/down or turn the SELECT dial to change the
month then move (A) to the day.
2 Change the rest of the fields in the same way.
3 Select (A) [Set] and then press SET to start the clock and close
the screen.

• When the built-in rechargeable lithium battery is exhausted, the date
and time setting may be lost. In such case, recharge the built-in lithium
battery (0 201) and set the time zone, date and time again.

with the [J Other Functions] [Clock Set] [Date Format] setting.
• You can also change the date and time later on (not during the initial
setup) with the [J Other Functions] [Clock Set] [Date/Time]
setting.
